The official glibc-2.38 reported to work in WSL1

[viruscamp]

As the maintainer of glibc-linux4 said in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/glibc-linux4#comment-930385

The normal glibc v2.38 works perfectly fine with WSL 1, which is on Linux v4.4.0. There is no need to update & use glibc-linux4 at the moment AFAIK. If you do need glibc-linux4 v2.38 as normal glibc will not work for you, please be sure to provide the details when you flag this package.

@yuk7 Would please make a new release which contains the latest official glibc-2.38 ?

I have tested, it works:

[~]$ yay -Q | grep glibc
glibc 2.38-3
[~]$ uname -a
Linux HOSTNAME 4.4.0-19041-Microsoft #2311-Microsoft Tue Nov 08 17:09:00 PST 2022 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[~]$ gcc
gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
